  A very well-written story and an excellent job of world-building, though I wonder why you had to bring Retsy back to trouble the world :p . @453 If it helps, my topic was titled an unofficial unhappy ending, so it can be ignored if desired.

  An amusing story as always. Well done :) . I think my favorite parts were the centrality of cats to the story (cats are very important to most stories as most people should know) and the fact that Wizard appeared and was late (as usual). @ikaterei_bot, on 01 March 2018 - 07:54 AM, said in Beyond Tiernan's Eyes: I'm suddenly wondering if story-Selax likes cats as much as author-Selax. Maybe it'll finally be something for him to have in common with T? I haven't really thought about that to be honest, but I'm inclined to doubt it. Story-Selax doesn't tend spend a lot of time thinking about this own likes and dislikes. He's too busy messing with other people's lives :p . @ikaterei_bot, on 01 March 2018 - 07:54 AM, said in Beyond Tiernan's Eyes: oh no, this doesn't bode well for Kat oh no. It's either Moonshadow or Adriana, isn't it? OH NO It's your own fault that you passed up the chance to kill Adriana in "Hym"...

  Well-done, 453 :) . I liked Selax's rather dry and disinterested way of discussing things. I also enjoyed the eulogies quite a bit. @ikaterei_bot, on 21 August 2017 - 09:35 PM, said in Ikken Naeja: For a moment, when Kat made it to the plains, I was excited they might actually have a happy moment. Then I remembered you wrote this for the chron challenge. THANKS, SELAX :mad: You're welcome. (Also, I think you should blame Avatara: he started it :p !)

  Congratulations on a job well done :) . A solid finish to the series. You did a very good job of building up non-Cytheran's worlds and cultures. The characterizations and the descriptions were exceptionally well done. @ikaterei_bot, on 22 June 2017 - 09:11 AM, said in Fading Lights: And after two and a half years, still no happy ending for T and Kat? sulks Surely she’ll show up. She has to. Probably followed by Selax and a few of his allies and enemies all engaged in a massive brawl :p (although Selax might actually be somewhat apologetic in such a situation).

  Another well-written chron :) . I particularly enjoyed the references to older stories and the way you connected the various events in them.

  That is a very interesting way of looking at the Void. It's quite different than the other versions I've seen. I have to agree with 453 and Katerei respectively: Wilamos is very dedicated and the addition of goat universes is great. A fitting end to a good series :) .

  Another good chapter :) . One wonders why Chapelle felt compelled to leave Cythera and what he was seeking.

  @ikaterei_bot, on 03 January 2017 - 06:13 PM, said in The Archer: I guess it's in Ctimene's defense that she waited for Selena's permission to take her blood. She also suggested stopping so she could make sure Helena would recover. That said, I'm still inclined to think that 453's assessment of her magic is not far off the mark.

  One wonders why Helena dropped the vials. Was it merely because they were shaking or does she have some ulterior motive? @pallas-athene_bot, on 01 January 2017 - 10:49 PM, said in The Viper: In the rear was Ctimene. Wilamos didn’t want to think about blood so he didn’t. I have to admit that I enjoyed this line quite a bit.

  Wilamos might want to be a little concerned about some of his traveling companions, although Rapierian would definitely approve of Ctimene's research interests. One does wonder what sort of research she is conducting that would cause her to feel a need to leave the world completely.

  Very considerate of Ctimene to help Helena with her breakfast (although Helena might have preferred to be asked first). @ikaterei_bot, on 31 December 2016 - 04:07 AM, said in The Magess: ...caused by the goat, undoubtedly. Beyond any doubt. Grapper's previous adventures give clear warning of the risks posed by taking goats lightly.

  @pallas-athene_bot, on 28 December 2016 - 10:49 PM, said in The Crab: Tauros repeated his fire-starting trick and Selena grilled the rabbitlizard on a spit above it. Wilamos thought it was pretty good, but found it a little dry without any goat cheese or goatsmilk to go with it. Poor Wilamos--how will he ever survive without Chapelle?

  Wilamos is certainly meeting some interesting traveling companions. One wonders what awaits him at the end of his journey.

  YES, a part 2! \o/ : __D dances “Silent mysterious type, are you?” “Yes.” :laugh: This story is very intriguing, I hope there's more, I'm eager to see what's up the mountain!

  @buzzzzy_bot, on 26 December 2016 - 12:18 PM, said in How the Grinch Stole Cythera: Thanks! :) You're welcome. @buzzzzy_bot, on 26 December 2016 - 12:18 PM, said in How the Grinch Stole Cythera: Right? Truly great accomplishments just never get the appreciation they deserve. Indeed, Bellerophon deserves a monument. @buzzzzy_bot, on 26 December 2016 - 12:18 PM, said in How the Grinch Stole Cythera: He will forever be the hero Cythera needs. True, very true. @buzzzzy_bot, on 27 December 2016 - 04:41 PM, said in How the Grinch Stole Cythera: Also, re: Uzsuy cameo/Yesterday's Dawn reference, see, I didn't even remember the name of the TS. :p All I remember is hopping in without reading it, and Selax somehow actually incorporating it into the story (sort of). I apparently made other contributions, too? I honestly have zero recollection of any except the first. Probably for the better. I didn't actually catch that that part was a reference to Yesterday's Dawn until 453 pointed it out. An amusing callback to a good story :) .

I can't imagine Cythera-world without her though. Quite. She's every bit as important to the Cythera-world as Wizard is.

  Amusing, as always. Nice to read another entry in the adventures of Judge Bellerophon :) . He is quite good at the job. Alaric should really just abdicate the throne to him.
